A distant land that lead singer Luna travels to in her dreams, Nayivada is an escape from the realities and challenges faced in our society. In Nayivada anything is possible. “It is a magical land of a child where all innocence reigns,” says Luna. “Perhaps a representation of how pure Earth could be. Where trees can speak to humans, where fairies are in sight of the human eye, where flowers taste just as good as they smell and where peace and love rule.”

The members of Endless Valley are old souls who have met in many other lives but have reunited to find peace with each other, create music and act as messengers. Music is very powerful. Just like magic. The Nayividians wish for peace on Earth. It is impossible to be truly connected to our planet if we are not yet connected to each other. That is the secret meaning of life. It’s eternal love. This is the reason why we are here. Because the creators loved us so much that they wanted to share a beautiful gift. We are all one and it is time to let go and connect before destroying ourselves once again…

Stirring up ghosts from Mazzy Star to The Brian Jonestown Massacre to The Beatles, the lustrous new single 'Leaf of Stone' is both an example of, and exploration into, retro-mania. A shimmering, retro-infused ballad about death: the eternal artist.

'Leaf of Stone' explores our reliance on, and use of, past ideas and symbols. Why do we all individually style ourselves with particular clothing, referencing a particular era or style, while excluding a range of other clothing options and styles? Why do we only wear this shape of sunglasses, and not this other shape? And, ultimately, what does this achieve? With each decision comes an incremental death of potential actions and draws a line in the mud between what can be done and what cannot. Our future ‘selves’ are built upon an increasingly formulaic and patterned version of our present, and past decisions. Each decision is a reference to a past event, but also becomes itself a reference point for future choices. For every symbolic and stylistic choice represents the death of a set of future actions on the one hand, and an opening up of future possibilities on the other. It is both death and preservation, like a leaf of stone.

The single was captured live in the studio, with no click track, and minimal overdubs. Recorded and mixed by Darek Mudge (Screamfeeder, Tired Lion, Violent Soho) and mastered by Matthew Gray (The Red Paintings, Mental As Anything, The Screaming Jets).

"Of the few overdubs we did, my favourite was an idea we stole from The Beatles’ tune 'Blue Jay Way,' reflects frontman Marc Cheeseman. "When they finished mixing that recording it was copied to a separate tape, hooked up two machines, and placed the two copies of the song on each machine. They played one forwards, fading in, and one backwards, fading out, and recorded that to another tape! We were able to reproduce this whole process digitally which was a bunch of fun and (I think) sounds great."

LYRIC
Lay me down to rest
Need to look my best
When I'm on my own

Weighing on my chest
Lest I be alone
The more that you know

Now under arrest
Though not made of stone
Are you like the rest
Are you like the rest

Leaf of stone
Leaf of stone

Are you not impressed
Like a leaf of stone
When you look your best

Lay me down to rest
Like a leaf of stone
As a palimpsest
As a palimpsest

Leaf of stone
Leaf of stone

The record features four songs written at different points over the past six years. Each song is a reflection of the time in which they were written, with ideas discussed such as the complex nature of a person owning an action; the at once nostalgic and teasingly ephemeral nature of love; reaching the point of needing to break ties with people who are close to you; seeing through and trying to find light in damaging relationships.

These songs are lifted by an incredible group of musicians - Helen Franzmann (McKisko, Mess-Esque), Georgia Harvey (Yffer, Seagull, Cold Hands Warm Heart) and Cameron Smith (Spirit Bunny, St. Augustus, Ghost Notes, Terra Pines).

A short run of 30 tapes will also feature an exclusive b-side including three pieces of poetry written and read by Fionn.]]>

If you’re The Holy Rollercoasters you do.

4000 Records will release 'Odyssey' in three parts, with this first EP focusing on the separation of Odysseus (now Otis, to put a modern and soul twist to it), from his wife Penelope and their son Telemachus.

‘When You Coming Home?’ is a lush soul number with an unusual structure that tells the tale of Penelope awaiting her partner's return from war, ‘Not Another Word From You’ portrays an incensed young man demanding his father grow up and return home, and ‘Tears, Heartache and Sighs’ turns to the character of Otis, extricating himself from an unhealthy relationship to return home to his true love.

“Our recorded work with The Holy Rollercoasters has always been strongly thematically unified," says co-songwriter/producer Andrew Garton.

If you’re The Holy Rollercoasters you do.

4000 Records will release 'Odyssey' in three parts, with this first EP focusing on the separation of Odysseus (now Otis, to put a modern and soul twist to it), from his wife Penelope and their son Telemachus.

‘When You Coming Home?’ is a lush soul number with an unusual structure that tells the tale of Penelope awaiting her partner's return from war, ‘Not Another Word From You’ portrays an incensed young man demanding his father grow up and return home, and ‘Tears, Heartache and Sighs’ turns to the character of Otis, extricating himself from an unhealthy relationship to return home to his true love.

“Our recorded work with The Holy Rollercoasters has always been strongly thematically unified," says co-songwriter/producer Andrew Garton.

The album was made slowly. Quickly. At a medium pace. Stitched together the very same way. It started with Jordan sitting in front of two vocal microphones with his classic nylon in the studio (a lovely retreat in Camp Valley) and playing a song for Demetry Malahoff (producer, band friend, engineer).

From there onwards, partnered alongside Demetry, the two would sit and construct and build a more rounded “song” around those live recordings. Mostly withholding and keeping in the natural room sounds of the cabin-esque studio and the mountain valley that surrounded it. Dogs. Birds. A train. Some sounds you can hear but can’t quite make out. Though you’ll know they are there.

The record was then sent to Melbourne to be mastered by Jessi Lumbar (Blisstake / Sex on Toast) .

The album was made slowly. Quickly. At a medium pace. Stitched together the very same way. It started with Jordan sitting in front of two vocal microphones with his classic nylon in the studio (a lovely retreat in Camp Valley) and playing a song for Demetry Malahoff (producer, band friend, engineer).

From there onwards, partnered alongside Demetry, the two would sit and construct and build a more rounded “song” around those live recordings. Mostly withholding and keeping in the natural room sounds of the cabin-esque studio and the mountain valley that surrounded it. Dogs. Birds. A train. Some sounds you can hear but can’t quite make out. Though you’ll know they are there.

The record was then sent to Melbourne to be mastered by Jessi Lumbar (Blisstake / Sex on Toast) .

This is a local excursion of shimmering melodic joy, heavier dives, drones, grooves and walls of sonic scapes.

Focusing on an authentic capture, the tracks were recorded within a single performance session, with ‘Intro’ existing as a singular take. Companion tracks ‘Stone’ and ‘From 6:21’ were only performed twice, securing an atmosphere that reflects the band’s foundationally organic approach and commitment to a performance that is collectively “in-the-moment”.

Bounding on stage halfway through their sets, Asha duetted with lead singer Jimi Beavis, harmonised with guitarist Chris George Bancroft and keys player Benjamin Van Jole and roared out a huge, horn-heavy showstopper with the band’s arrangement of her own song ‘Absence & Copyright’.

These performances birthed the idea to record the song together but Covid swiftly halted such plans, until recently. With a bit of extra time up their sleeves, they decided to also record one of Asha’s unreleased songs, ‘Don’t Do Cocaine’, with Jimi singing. The track has been fully rearranged and given a heady big band funk treatment.

Asha was not new to the band. She had been in Jimi’s English class when she went to Music Industry College where she went to high school, where Jimi still teaches and where the band records and rehearses. Guitarist Chris performed in her band and she sings on his solo recordings. In fact, it was before her first Bigsound appearance with Chris in the band that Jimi gave her some advice: “Don’t Do Cocaine”, he said.

So she wrote a song. And here it is.]]>

The synths are real exciting. We’ve got Russian vocalist Zulya Kamalova on an electro-psychedelic take on the traditional Serbian number ‘Mesecina’. The title track goes for 20 minutes. Yeah.

“I’m proud to say this album is our most bonkers yet!” ruminates composer and cimbalom player André Bonetti. “There’s some hectic Balkan-disko, there’s a song about drinking the fluff you find in your bumcrack, there’s a nose-flute interlude and it’s got synths. The synths are real exciting. We’ve got Russian vocalist Zulya Kamalova on an electro-psychedelic take on the traditional Serbian number ‘Mesecina’. The title track goes for 20 minutes. Yeah. It’s all pretty slam-dance!”

Spending a brief stint as an ambient bedroom recording experiment of Jacque McGill, 2017 saw the project evolve into a full band with Erica Sunnex (bass, vocals) and Lachlan Andrews (drums) joining the ranks and soon after, Local Authority was born.

In 2019 the band released their debut album 'Negative Space' on 4000 Records, featuring locally lauded singles 'No Joy' and 'Oil Rigs'. The record showcased the band’s particular affinity towards the 80’s and early 90’s alternative U.K. music scenes with equal parts claustrophobic coldwave style infused with delicate dream pop sensibilities.

In 2021 Local Authority return with new member Kailan O’Dell and their latest single 'Forever, For Now'.]]>

Instead, another beast entirely exuded forth. On top of the acoustic guitar, knee slaps and vocals format canonised by INM, Morbal Trusk introduced the elements of percussive pots, pans and tupperware, organ, spoons, bass and even the odd horn. The result is something as equally aversive but arguably more melodic, with some passages even invoking delightful whimsy.

This release came to be as I (John) was a fan of INM back in their heyday and came across Morbal Trusk's offerings in 2007 as a result. Upon learning they were also from Brisbane I reached out to let them just to let them know how much I enjoyed their take on the genre. We had a few odd email exchanges and that was it.

In early 2020 I was revisiting some of their recordings and on a whim tried their old email. As luck would have it it was still in use and after many more interesting exchanges, here we are, with Morbal Trusk's first official release!

The material on this album has been taken from some of the six demo releases produced between March 2007 and February 2008.

The first two demos were recorded on an iRiver T10 mp3 player.
'Rob's Rissoles' was a random one-off recording made in 2012.

The identity of Morbal Trusk is unknown.
My request for lyrics has been denied, twice.
This is everything I know about the project.

The third single from The Double Happiness’ upcoming album ‘Surfgazing’ elicits the quartet’s love of the shoegaze aesthetic. It entices the listener to take a seashell to the ear and hear the splash and the roar of the reverb-drenched guitar hooks, the pummelling drums and the gentle lulling of the ethereal sirens' sigh.

This song is a personification of the mollusc and asks the big questions...
Do oysters dream?
Does their sleep make waves?

'Biophilia' is a call to the fantastical land of Nayivada, a land found in the core of the sun. This world is brimming with magic. It is host to a natural beauty beyond compare, which the people revere and worship. It is here that acceptance of all and the freedom to live and love and express reign. In this place, Nayivada, an ideal Earth can be obtained if we only open our minds, live in alliance with our hearts and show love to our fellow man.

This album is a reflection on how tropical Northern Australia is often misunderstood by southerners. It is also a record designed for relaxation and mental journeying at an uncertain time. Lite Fails’ debut album ‘The End of the World has Already Happened’ (Flaming Pines, 2020) was a record about fire, created at a time of environmental crisis. ‘North of Capricorn’ is a very different beast. This is water music.

All field recordings were made on stolen land. I gratefully acknowledge the Gimuy-Walubarra Yidi, Yirrganydji, Yuibera, Butchulla and Gubbi Gubbi peoples. All mixing took place on the land of Turrbal and Jagera peoples in Meanjin ('Brisbane') and on the lands of the Kulin Nation in Narrm ('Melbourne'). Thanks also to Rohan Lloyd for showing me the tropical north of my home state. All music and field recordings by Henry Reese. Cover photo by Terese Reese. Graphic design by Katy Bedford. Love and thanks to all.

Conjuring film noir-esque scenes of smoke-filled dive bars and late night musings, the new single “Truth” is a heady brew of heavy psychedelic blues, velvety smooth synth and cheap scotch.

LYRICS:
Eye for an eye
You for a you
Myopic eyes
They are true
They are true
They are true

Lie for a lie
Sleep for a sleuth
Myopic eyes
They are truth
They are truth
They are truth

Deny through the night
Make your excuse
Smoke dances high
Day is truth

‘Scarborough’ is a noticeable departure from the recent psychedelic, folk-tinged rock of the quartet’s recent releases and shows the band’s diversity in composition alongside Cheeseman's impressive vocal capabilities.

The song follows the tragic story of a love triangle, ending in suicide, set in a small fishing village in the UK during the 19th Century. Titled in reference to the town where Marc’s grandparents grew up, the song also contemplates historical continuity and the concept of progress. Technology improves, but does that make people kind to each other? Connectivity increases, but does that make people happy? These ghosts haunt every moment of our hyper-modern lives, don’t you want to know how far they have come?

LYRICS:

Yesterday, I came back from Scarborough
Yesterday, I walked back home
Eyes of flame, my girl back in Scarborough
Tears of rain, my girl at home

Scratching at your window
Don’t you want to know how far

So today, I’ll go back to Scarborough
Cards away, I can’t stay home
Gentle sway, when I came back from Scarborough
No more rain, my girl’s last song

Scratching at your window
Don’t you want to know how far]]>

Titled in reference to the tambourine player from The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Joel Gion, the song also touches on drug use and loneliness, but not necessarily in a negative way. Feeling alone and using drugs as a crutch is not good, obviously, but giving yourself time and space to feel emotions and think through them is better than ignoring them completely. It’s a dangerous thing; suppressing strong emotions and pretending you’re ok.

In terms of recording, singer/guitarist Marc Cheeseman says, "We wanted this recording to sound like our live performances, not an overproduced, technically-accurate studio recording. So we recorded the backing track live with no click track, and then just overdubbed the vocals. We also sneakily added some acoustic guitar for extra “vibes” maaaaan. For vocals and the acoustic guitar we used a Neumann U47, similar to the mic that Frank Sinatra and The Beatles used. I was really happy about using that mic. It’s the prettiest sounding (and most expensive!) mic I’ve ever been able to use."

The track was originally recorded in 2009 (and appears on the album '5:18'), when Fingerless was a vehicle for Marc's solo psych-folk musings. It perhaps evokes the theme of solitude more directly, being that Marc was alone in his bedroom recording the song, which is atmospherically very present in the recording. However, when the lineup expanded to a quartet in late 2017, it was the first song that they jammed on and instantly sounded huge, taking on a life of its own and quickly became a crowd favourite at live shows.

LYRICS:

I lock out the night, draw the curtains closed.
Hold the windows tight, hope the latches hold.
See reflective light, these unspoken words ring, through my mind.

Forget your fright, for it won’t last I’m told.
Sort out your mind, let the night unfold.
Fuzz and delight, and trips into the cold, fool my mind.]]>

LYRICS

Well, it was nice to meet you
But it was such a displeasure to know you
All that you do, you do blindly without your guilt
And i can't help but feel scared as you hurt me

I can't be the same
I can’t be the same
I can’t be the same
I can’t be the same

There are traces of you in the smiles of faces I once wanted to know
You still seek me out beneath sheets, in homes, with friends, in the road
But I should have known better than to let someone like you
Burrow into me like a tic and suck out all that’s good
But you’ve brought joy into the lives of others
You’ve brought joy into the lives of others

They stand together now
With disbelief set in their brow
As you break the rules
That should not be broken
And they’ll leave you to do
To do what you need
So they too can enjoy
This perfumed sense of peace
Oh it’s hard to believe
How little I must mean
When you spent years, years
Cutting at my seams

I can’t be the same
I can’t be the same
But I am not built, no I am not built
To harbour your pain, to harbour my pain
When there is nothing, when there is no change
You have broken homes inside of my brain]]>

We often oscillate and move through spaces that are shared and simultaneously depleted – it could be argued that all spaces we occupy can only be ones like this now, unless we’re regularly aligning ourselves with purely natural environments, which is a somewhat avoidant way of soothing. It is the ignorance of not listening to underlying feelings, energy and what’s moving through (on a subconscious level) when we’re with only ourselves that perpetrates the damage we’re doing to our earth, widening the hole in sky that’s invisible to the human eye but felt in South Eastern Australian exposure to the sun.

The second half of 'Greenhouse Effect' speaks directly of the tiredness we can feel after long sun exposure, as well as long exposure to people as well as communicative exposure (vulnerability). Not worrying about it is how we’ll continue to operate with these subconscious or overhead issues for as long as they remain invisible.

The final release from the beloved Brisbane trio.
You will be missed.

LYRICS:

Out of eye
Feeling so small
Feeling so strong
Feeling so sore

Out of sight
Feeling so in-sync
Synthesised state
Overhauled brain

I don’t mind
Having you around
Having you around
Having you around

Uptight
Feelings always out
Feeling my way out
Feeling all this doubt

Across the road
Too far away to hear
Eyes on tarmac
Hands behind back

Am I too loud
Too loud for you think
All that pressure, space
Taken up by me

Stepping out
When you’re not around
You don’t know
What I’m not saying

Clarity
Harder to reach
Are you all muddled here
Or am I in the mud

Feeling worn out

It's time to settle down

It's over

Featuring the soulful melancholic tones of Ronnie Rallings, the track underscores a boom-bap stream of consciousness rap with lush layers of psychedelic textures and ambient grooves. In a seamless juxtaposition of 90s nostalgia and experimental electronica, 'Nodes' is a lyrical exploration of monotony and rebellion, powerlessness and freedom, set to Aubergine’s unique psych-chill-jazz sound.

LYRICS:
I take a walk and try to talk the talk
It’s kinda dark
Recess to my art
It’s cold outside and I can’t see inside my mind
Time is behind
Trying day to day to perform
Backwards walking in a storm
Can't see the earth's resources anymore
Wish I wasn’t rich or poor just in the middle
More shit I dribble
Beginning to cripple
But I chastise and better rise in order to topple this man-made enterprise
And I’m standing here crying

I roll just like an enchilada
Not the devil dressed in Prada
Drink of choice is my whisky and water
Like an algorithm beast caged in its own prison
Get rid of the rhyme
Criticism
My eyes see the only real vision
When I’m crossing all these borders
Defying all these orders
Such poverty and frustration
Can’t afford my registration
The motivation
Imma deliver
Feel the earth move shake and quiver

And the microphone explodes into nodes of darkness
Nobody can tell me what my path is
And the microphone explodes into nodes of darkness
Nobody can tell ya what ya path is

Red light colour defeat
Sideways smile repeat
I’m still alive although I’m up smoke
I’m a repeat for you to hear
Pull this feeling from ya ear
We persevere
Queue in lines for fake truth and times
Serious sabotage serves us sadness
Scandal I say
Well there’s just so much sadness
State of mind
Silicon is real
The satirical feel
No cage
Mescaline medicine
Miracle mind mould

And the microphone explodes into nodes of darkness
Nobody can tell me what my path is
And the microphone explodes into nodes of darkness
Nobody can tell ya what ya path is

You sold your soul and now you want it back
Turn around that’s all you see
Move like rivers

You sold your soul and now you want it back
Turn around that’s all you see
Move like rivers
Flow like me

I am whatever
A music connection
I’m a connection to music
Whatever
The soulful power that I pull from a flower
Watch as my confidence does tower
I don’t need no sympathy
Stronger than a bird set free
Plenty of time to grieve
Life carries on
It was all promised
Time will tell
Throw no coins into the wishing well
Money far too precious to some
Blissfully ignorant and dumb
The blackened sun

And the microphone explodes into nodes of darkness
Nobody can tell me what my path is
And the microphone explodes into nodes of darkness
Nobody can tell ya what ya path is

The second single from The Double Happiness’ debut album tells the story of a little island off the Brisbane coastline. It sonically evokes that freeing feeling of leaving the mainland – the breeze, the seabirds, the lapping waves.

"Years ago, friends spoke excitedly about Coochiemudlo Island (just off the coast of Brisbane)," says Pete, "and took me there for a day-trip." Coochie is an eccentric little character and a very likeable one. Time moves more slowly out there, so it's fitting that the guitar licks are unhurried, with emotions amplifying as we soar to the outro.

'Coochiemudlo' hopes to hold your hand and take you on a little journey, past the dugongs and those gentle waters that throw a spectacle of a thousand jellyfish in its low waves....

LYRICS

Caught a ferry where the dugongs swim
He sat next to her she sat next to him
We found ourselves on a darker sand
Coochiemudlo is another land

Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves
Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves

The lapping of waves sent us to sleep
The tide was rising above our feet
Coochie Coochie the seabirds screamed
An island has entered into my dream

Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves
Low waves
Coochiemudlo waves
